3-CPs
Based on 1 Customer Validation
3-CPs is a monofunctional furanocoumarin and a photoprotective agent targeting Staphylococcus aureus DNA, possessesing anti-UVB lethal activity. 3-CPs competitively intercalates into DNA, forming exclusively 4',5'-furan-side mono-adducts upon UVB irradiation, and irreversibly inhibits the formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers. 3-CPs prevents UVB-induced DNA damage by preferentially binding to strong (AT)n sites within the DNA, without inducing lethal interstrand DNA cross-links; the limited number of mono-adducts it induces can be efficiently repaired by bacteria. 3-CPs holds potential for use in the development of photoprotective formulations for skin diseases, as well as in studies investigating bacterial DNA photodamage repair mechanisms and the optimization of photochemotherapy safety.

Biological Activity
3-CPs (0.02875–0.23 mM; 20 min dark incubation followed by cumulative UVB irradiation for up to 150 s) demonstrates a consistent photoprotective effect against UVB-induced bacterial death in Staphylococcus aureus ISP 255 strain, exhibiting no concentration-dependent differences[1].

Cell Line:Staphylococcus aureus ISP 255
-
Concentration:0.02875 mM, 0.0575 mM, 0.115 mM, 0.23 mM
-
Incubation Time:20 min dark incubation + cumulative UVB irradiation
-
Result:provided significant and consistent photoprotection against UVB-induced lethality in Staphylococcus aureus ISP 255 at all tested concentrations.
The survival fraction of bacteria plus UVB was substantially higher than that of the UVB-only group, and no obvious concentration-dependent change in protective efficacy was observed.
